"Don't Drop Out" Vintage Dolly Parton

There is a long, drawn-out story to how this song 1) made its way to our iTunes and 2) made its way to this post. Let's just say one MK and procrastination were involved, much to the chagrin of a specific Starkian. The song is simple pop construction at its finest -- highly repeatable, highly enjoyable and highly equipped to mentally infiltrate you: verese, chorus, verse, repeated chorus, out... Running time -- 2:30. Where did it come from? A '60s girl group compilation titled, One Kiss Can Lead to Another: Girl Group Sounds Lost and Found. Fantastic. Don't concern yourself with the creepy muffled speaking at the tune's beginning, just enjoy. Here you go! Finally.
